Learning, listening and celebrating together

Last week, our team and families came together to celebrate NAIDOC Week 2026 and this year's theme, Fifty Years of Deadly. 

The morning featured a Welcome to Country by Whadjuk Ballardong Elder, Aunty Robyn Collard, cultural dance and didgeridoo performances by Midn Marr Dreaming and Tryse Rioli, a Noongar language lesson with Rosemary Walley, native ingredient-inspired catering from Gather Australia and a cookie decorating session for the kids.

Thank you to everyone who shared their stories with us. It was a meaningful opportunity to learn, connect and celebrate the rich cultures of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, while honouring the legacy of the past 50 years and progressing toward a more respectful and inclusive future.
